The ShoreTel 11.2 VoIP Unified Communications System is now available. This edition enables Gmail Premier and cheap xenical south africa Education account holders to better manage voicemails received as email attachments. It also makes it cheap xenical south africa easier for some users to join calls already in progress. Finally, callers can cheap xenical south africa add their names to the caller ID of outgoing calls.
New Features for Gmail Premier and Education Accounts Holders (Only) The current ShoreTel unified communications architecture can cheap xenical south africa be configured to send voicemails (as WAV files) to email accounts. In this cheap xenical south africa edition, a Synchronization with Gmail for Business feature automatically synchronizes the cheap xenical south africa state of a ShoreTel user’s voice mail with the state of each corresponding email (when voicemail status is sent by way of ShoreTel’s email notification). In other words, voicemails that cheap xenical south africa have been opened in Google Premier and Education accounts – these accounts have cheap xenical south africa the APIs that are necessary for the integration to work – will be noted as ‘read’ by the ShoreTel server.
The HQ or DVS server monitors the state of a user’s voicemails and cheap xenical south africa emails and synchronizes those states. For example, when a user opens the cheap xenical south africa voicemail notification email, the voicemail is marked heard on the voicemail system, and cheap xenical south africa the message-waiting indicator on the phone is turned off.
Note that cheap xenical south africa synchronization occurs on a schedule and may not be instant. Also, the cheap xenical south africa system can’t tell if the WAV file was heard – only that the email to which the WAV was attached was opened.
Enhanced Conferencing and Bridging Options With this new feature, users’ phones can cheap xenical south africa be configured to easily join calls already in progress. The feature will be cheap xenical south africa especially valuable in situation where one person may be setting up/receiving calls or cheap xenical south africa conference calls for a colleague, or adding parties to an ongoing call. Enhancements to the Shared Call Appearance (SCA) include an cheap xenical south africa executive phone interface that resembles a regular phone with standard functions, the cheap xenical south africa ability to configure hotlines on a button box, and a cheap xenical south africa simplified configuration in Director.
The new SCA features are cheap xenical south africa available on all IP phone models except IP210, IP115, and IP110 support SCA. SIP and cheap xenical south africa analog phones do not support the SCA. Outbound Caller ID Names
Additional Outbound Caller ID Information The new function Caller ID Name on T1-PRI lets a cheap xenical south africa ShoreGear Switch add the user name to caller ID (CID) information in an cheap xenical south africa outbound call. The new function is available on T1-PRI trunks but not BRI or cheap xenical south africa E1-PRI trunks.

A little over a cheap xenical south africa year after ratification of the 802.11n wireless standard, businesses are beginning to cheap xenical south africa adopt the technology and offer its workers the same quality of wireless service that cheap xenical south africa the workers can often get at home.
With 802.11n-compliant WLAN systems such as the cheap xenical south africa Aerohive Network Cooperative Control Access Point (CC-AP) family of products, wireless WLANS can cheap xenical south africa compete with Ethernet services to provide similar reliability and speeds, opening the cheap xenical south africa way to new enterprise applications such as VoIP and videoconferencing ‘from anywhere’ in the building.
24% are either still evaluating or passing on 802.11
39% are using WLAN technology on a large scale and growing it
37% are deploying WLANs for very specific uses only
The most telling statistic however, is:
87% say mobile devices, including smartphones, will become more prevalent in 2011
With even more mobile devices wandering around the cheap xenical south africa workplace, Information Week suggests that upgrading or expanding the WLAN will become a cheap xenical south africa business imperative, as untethered employees demand to cheap xenical south africa work on the move and costs of managing a WLAN system come down.
An update in the cheap xenical south africa WLAN architecture will contribute to the expansion of the wireless network model. "We think that the new distributed model is the way to go," advises Information Week. And "Aerohive has been a leader here."
The new distributed model uses intelligent access points that cheap xenical south africa have relationships with a management controller but don’t rely on it cheap xenical south africa for forwarding and policy decisions, such as quality of service and cheap xenical south africa firewalling. This decentralization enables 11n’s to cheap xenical south africa bypass the scaling limitations of the older controller model, where centralization of decision-making could really bog up the cheap xenical south africa system.
Information Week does offer cautions to cheap xenical south africa companies considering a WLAN implementation. They warn that:
All new computers and WiFi cards be dual-band enabled
WLAN systems comply with enterprise-grade security requirements.
Staff be adequately supported with diagnostic and support tools
Aerohive’s products answer these concerns up front, combining the cheap xenical south africa simplicity and throughput of a distributed WLAN architecture with enterprise-level security options and cheap xenical south africa management tools. Some Aerohive product features include:
The HiveAP 300 Series 802.11n Cooperative Control Access Points provide high performance dual concurrent (2.4 & 5 GHz) 802.11n (3×3) MIMO as well as dual 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports. Dual Ethernet ports allow the cheap xenical south africa access points to use link aggregation to double performance or cheap xenical south africa ensure reliability with redundant links.
The HiveAP 100 series includes a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) security microcontroller for cheap xenical south africa hardware-based key storage and encryption, ensuring security even if an cheap xenical south africa access point is stolen.
Aerohive’s HiveManager NMS is cheap xenical south africa a management system for Aerohive HiveAPs. HiveManager enables simple policy creation, firmware upgrades, configuration updates, and cheap xenical south africa centralized monitoring from a single console.

Wireless networking analyst Lisa Phife, president of consultancy Core Competence, has declared that controller-based Wireless LAN (WLAN) Architecture has ‘Hit Its Waterloo." She makes this declaration in her video interview with searchnetworking.com editor Rivka Little. So what is an "IT Waterloo?"
Phife explains that WLAN controller-based architectures did deliver data center optimization benefits. However, as WLANs got bigger, bandwidth got higher and cheap xenical south africa latency requirements became more stringent — voice applications probably sending latency requirements over the top — controllers hit their limit. They simply can’t scale any further.
According to cheap xenical south africa Phifer, a controller-less, distributed architecture is the right approach for today’s wireless LANs. A “decentralized architecture” with intelligent Access Points (APs) can accomplish tasks that simply can’t be managed with controllers in charge. While all control functions and data forwarding is managed by smart APs, the architecture retains centralized management system for monitoring and configuration – similar to how routers in the Internet function.
Some of the advantages of intelligent APs are:
Intelligent APs can use what they “hear” in the cheap xenical south africa air to determine which other APs are close to them, and cheap xenical south africa use that in mesh-routing decisions.
Intelligent APs can use what they “hear” in the air to change their channel if necessary.
Intelligent APs can use what they “hear” in the cheap xenical south africa air to adjust their transmit power, and interfere less with nearby devices.
Intelligent APs can cheap xenical south africa make decisions very, very quickly, such as how clients are actually using the cheap xenical south africa air at any given time. This information is used to make adjustments to cheap xenical south africa how much time they get in the air in order to cheap xenical south africa meet SLAs.
Aerohive’s cooperative control wireless LAN architecture eliminates wireless LAN controllers, providing all the cheap xenical south africa management, mobility, and security of controller-based architectures without the cost, capacity, performance and cheap xenical south africa availability issues associated with controller deployments. Aerohive’s intelligent APs (HiveAPs) cost the cheap xenical south africa same or less than controller-based APs and are able to handle all aspects of authentication, association, fast/secure roaming, data forwarding, power and cheap xenical south africa channel management, etc, completely eliminating the requirement for controllers.
